Home additions across Alexandria — Old Town, Del Ray, Rosemont and beyond. Fixed-price proposals, 10-year workmanship warranty, and design-build from the same team.
On-site visit, design ideas, realistic budget.
Alexandria is a city of historic neighborhoods with some of the strictest architectural review in the region. Old Town, Rosemont, and Del Ray each have BAR (Board of Architectural Review) or historic overlay requirements. We've cleared those boards dozens of times — we prepare the drawings, elevations, and materials packages that get approved.
We serve every ZIP code in Alexandria: 22301, 22305, 22314. We know the local HOAs, county permitting process, and what kinds of additions the local housing stock best supports.
From a 200-square-foot kitchen bump-out to a full second story, every project is designed to match your home's character and built to a fixed, written price.
Add a full second floor to your existing home. Ideal for growing families who love their neighborhood but need more space.

Historic district with BAR review on every exterior change. Our packages clear the board. Rear kitchen additions most common.
Bungalow-heavy walkable village. Dormer pop-ups and rear master-suite additions are the highest-demand projects.
Historic overlay — most of Rosemont's 1920s homes are expansion candidates with the right design approach.
Historic African-American neighborhood. Careful, respectful additions that honor the original vernacular.
Adjacent to Del Ray. Similar bungalow stock, similar project patterns.
Newer construction mixed with older. Full range of addition types.
Full Class A contractor licensing. We pull every permit and coordinate every inspection — no cutting corners, no liability landing on you.
You get a written, line-item proposal before we break ground. What you sign is what you pay, unless you change the scope.
Architect, designer, and build crew all under one roof. No finger-pointing between a separate designer and contractor when something needs a change.
We stand behind the structure, framing, roofing, and waterproofing for a full decade. Most of our clients need us back only to start the next project.
We walk you through every phase — from first sketch to final walk-through — with a fixed price locked in before a single crew member shows up.
We walk your home, listen to what you need, measure, and sketch possibilities on the spot. About 60–90 minutes.
Floor plans, 3D renderings, material selections, and a locked-in price. No pressure — sit with it for as long as you need.
We handle every permit, HOA approval, and inspection. You'll know exactly when crews arrive and what disruption to expect.
Daily site cleanliness, weekly progress updates, and a punch-list walkthrough before we consider the job done.
"They added a 600 sq ft master suite off the back of our home and the seam between old and new is invisible. Hit every milestone, no change orders."
"We interviewed four contractors for a second-story addition. They were the only ones who showed up with a real sketch and a real timeline. Worth every penny."
"Built a full in-law suite above our garage for my mother. They handled the HOA review, permits, and finished a week early. The crew was respectful and clean every single day."
Most additions in our service area run between $225 and $400 per square foot, depending on finishes, whether the addition is single-story or two-story, and how much new mechanical work is involved (HVAC zones, new electrical panel, plumbing runs). We provide a fixed, written price after a free in-home consultation so there are no surprises.
From signed contract to move-in, a straightforward bump-out typically takes 10–14 weeks. A second-story addition usually runs 5–7 months. Design, permitting, and HOA review (which is heavy in many NoVA communities) account for roughly half of that timeline, so starting early always pays off.
For most additions — no. We seal the work area from the rest of the house, maintain access to your kitchen and bathrooms, and schedule the most disruptive phases (cutting openings, HVAC tie-ins) for minimal impact. For whole-house or second-story projects where the roof comes off, temporary lodging is sometimes recommended.
In Northern Virginia's market, well-designed additions typically recoup 65–85% of their cost at resale and often more in high-demand ZIPs like McLean, Great Falls, and Vienna. A master suite, second-story bedroom addition, or expanded kitchen tends to deliver the highest ROI.
Yes. We've submitted architectural review packages to most major HOAs in Fairfax, Loudoun, Arlington, and Alexandria — including the exacting ones. We prepare the drawings, elevations, and materials specs your ARC needs and represent you at the review if you'd like.
Every one. Fairfax County, Loudoun County, Arlington County, and the City of Alexandria each have their own process and inspectors — we pull the permits, schedule inspections, and handle any corrections. You never stand in line at a county office.
We work with several regional lenders who specialize in renovation and construction loans, including HELOCs, cash-out refinances, and RenoFi loans that borrow against your home's post-renovation value. Happy to make an introduction.
